KAMLOOPS — The City of Kamloops was recognized by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada for last year’s financial reporting.

The City said the recognitions for its 2024 Annual Report show commitment to transparency, accountability, and high-quality financial reporting.

Kamloops was given the Canadian Award for Financial Reporting and the Award for Outstanding Achievement in Popular Annual Financial Reporting for clarity, accessibility and comprehensive financial communication.

City officials said the Canadian Award for Financial Reporting was given for the 2024 City of Kamloops Annual Report. The City said this award encourages municipalities to produce high-quality financial reports beyond minimum requirements.

“Reports are evaluated by an impartial Canadian Review Committee and must clearly communicate a municipality’s financial story in a way that motivates residents and stakeholders to engage with the information,” said Kamloops officials.
